PIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS; On Friday last there was a meeting of the Precursor Society at the ,Cornm Exch atip;4Eid - Af."o'COniiell, ' as w ill ri Wined l a k O ur reporifip4,4 it 'great length, and a d v e r t e d to a great varlity Of it3p6 - . He told the meeting that in the Precursor Society already, enrolled 100,000, find that-on Moiaciay hat ‘(Ye'sieiday) they would nearly have 'their fi rs t Among the .first objects be pro-!, 'tie2,ges t 6 'effect is the eiptinging from the Statute Book the, la* Which' makes the tnhabitants of Ireland contribute to the 'clefigy of - a religi on which i s not t h e re li g i on of the irnajoritp the per cent. of rent charge must be abo- -1 fished or apprOPriaied to public purposes.". . And he sug geited that It shohld. be applied in Part payment, of. the new hu r d ee o f ' p o or- r a t es. This suggestion does not stir ' pris'e us : indeed, We 'have I)een long, prepared, for it. NO reflecting person Fould ever suppose th a t th e . Irish would' willingly sub mit to the establishment of an alien religion and as Protestants :and Catholics must equally wish to pay as little as possible in the shape of poor-rates, we foresee that the rent-charge for tithes will ' be 'applied towards the poor -rate. With respect to the Ballot, it will now come before Parliament as the sine qua non of the Irish Members. "We will now," he says, join England and Scotland in demanding the Ballot, and the people of three provinces of Ireland will, if they do not otherwise grant it, tell the Ministry that their representa tives will no long er lend th em t h e i r support i f, in return, they d o not a dvocate the Ballot." We should, indeed, suppose that the Ballot is more necessary in Ireland than in England. It would seem that the Protestants, and more especially the Presbyterians, have begun to suspect that the Catholic clergy wish to get hold of the tithes. Mr. O'Connell admits that equality with England would " de mand the transfer• of the revenues of the Church of the minority to our own," and asserts that " in strictness our Church has a right to the revenues which are now possessed by the Established Church ;" but he adds, " we may waive a right, no matter whether that right con fer an advantage or disadvantage. And in this instance we do waive it, for we do not consider it any advantage.-- (Hear.) The people of Ireland will never consent to have their beloved clergy paid, for they know that it would make them idle, lazy, and proud ; that it would make them disposed to quarrel with the people ; and that it would create in them the same hatred to the people and their in terests that at present characterizes the Clergy of another Church. On Monday next I will propose the adoption of an address to the people of the north on this along with other subjects.—(Cries of Hear.)" It would seem that Mr. Sharman Crawford has been telling the people of Ulster, on the faith of conversations with Mr. O'Connell, that the Roman Catholic Clergy want to have the Tithes : " He is possessed of great power to do mischief, besides using such a powerful instrument ; for, will it not be said that be is in possession of the secrets of our camp, and that, on ac count of having been one of us, his authority is good ? He does know our sentiments—he does know our wishes and our designs; but, with all his knowledge, I hull defiance at him. He was most intimate with me--I defy him.—( Loud cheers.) I here dispense with his obligation to secrecy—l free him from all the consequences of the promulgation of any private con. versations he may have bad with me, or of any designs which he knew were entertained by the friends of the people ; and I defy him to assert tits it in conversation with me or with any other Catholic, or in any writing emanating from a Catholic, he ever heard or read of the expression of such a wish 48 the transfer of the revenues of the Establishment to their own Church.,—(Loud cheers.) He cannot ; let him, if he can." Mr. O'Connell enlarges at great length on the supposed hatred borne in England towards Ireland. We foresee that one effect of this will be to produce a hatred at least equally strong in Ireland towards England. But we sup pose all this alienation of feeling is deemed a necessary precursor to the Repeal. In the mean time Lord Nor manby is denounced for appointing too many Englishmen and Scotchmen to offices in Ireland ; and a caveat is de livered against the supposed intention of making Sir John Campbell Lord Plunket's successor. We believe there is no foundation for this report ; but we regret to find Mr. O'Connell countenancing hostility to the transfer of dis tinguished lawyers from the one island to the other. Sir Edward Sugden gave great satisfaction in Ireland, and why may not another appointment from England prove equally beneficial ? It is true the Bar of England set the first exdtrinle of this international strife by their opposition to Lord Plunket, merely because it was unfit that an Irish Barrister should be made an English Judge. Th e speech of Mr. O'Connell is of great importance, as containin g the whole plan of his next campaign, of which we have only bad portions at his late dinners. What between agitation, in Ireland, the anarchical movements of the working classes in England and Scotland, and the prospects in Canada, the situation of Ministers is hardly to be envied.—Morning Chronicle. It is some time since we noticed the political affairs of Ireland, or the progress of the Romish rebellion there. Though silent, however, we have not been altogether un observant. Our wish was, and is, that the course of things in that count r y s h ou ld go on for the present un impeed. The result will not thereby be rendered less in evitable, nor the future policy to be founded on it less manifest to the Imperial Legislature, to the British nation, and to Europe. We would hint, however, to her Majesty's Ministers, that it is almost time for them to have made up their minds how far they are to give attendance on Mr. Daniel O'Connell, Dr. Crotty, and the Precursor Combina tion, in the pursuit of those laudable objects for which Ireland is now ostensibly agitated. The position of the Queen's Government, at the feet of the Romish fac tion, is more prostrate and destitute of assistance or re lief than ever. Mr. O'Connell and his crew proclaim to all the world that they themselves are more earnest and inveterate in the persecution of Protestantism, to the utter extinction of the Established Church, and in the defeas ance of the Reform Bill, by the swamping of the House of Commons, under an influx of fifty or sixty more of Irish caterer's, for whom a list of vacancies is to be created, by disfranchising a proportionate number of British electorial bodies, and depriving so many English gentlemen of their seats. We say that, in this situation of things, it behoves Lord Melbourne and his colleagues to let the country un derstand plainly what they mean to do. Will they, or will they not, maintain their compact with the Romish Revolutionists of Ireland, hold office by the single tenure of their votes in Parliament, re-echo their speeches as those of " honourable friends," encourage and fawn upon them by accepting their recommendations to office, and dis pensing the Royal patronage in favour of those rebels and their dependents, while every act they do, and every word they utter, is overthrow to the Constitution, treason to the Monarchy, and open war upon England as a na tion ? We repeat the question to the Queen's Mi nisters, what has this country to expect from them? Will they not tell the people of England what system they are at length to adopt ? for what events we are to prepare ourselves ? It is downright wickedness, under such cir cumstances, when the Parliamentary friends of Minister s , who are satur a t e d w i t h t h e Queen's patronag e out of doors (ay, and within the Royal Palace), appear openly as de stroyers of the Protestant Church and State —it is down right fraud and wickedness in the Queen's responsibl e ad visers to withhold from the British nation generally, whe ther the conduct of the Government in its public acts is to correspond_ with that of th e men who enjoy the sweetaof office; and Cvho eXerciSellie - liiiCtioni: Of the Magistracy by iti delibeiate selection.

What is the inte r f erence of the p r i es t ? It is that of a despot, against whom, amongst a superstitious race, no hum ian power can have the slight est hope of resistance. It s the power excommunica tion. It i s th e p ower of confession. It is the power on which turns the social existence of the lay Roman Catholic. It is th a t on w hi c h t urns hi s salvation. is It an acknow ledged supremacy over body and soul. Earth and heaven are within its dominions : the priestly dynasty cannot be dethroned—it canno t p er i s h—the succession is undisputed and immortal—no human Government but that of the sword can co n t en d w ith t h e priesthood—to every other it is an in exora bl e torrent, an d w h ere t h e majorty of citizens v are Roman C a th o li c , it i s d eat h. A rea l RepreseLtatie Government, founded on opinion, where there is an excess of Papist s over o th er sec t s , must en d i n represent i ng the opinion, that is the selfish or corporate i nterest, o f t h e priest hood, which tolerates no opinion, and undermines every inte rest but its own. Such, therefore, is now the state of Ireland. O'Connell has:raised an immense physical force for the service of Drs. Crotty and M`Hale, and of the hierarchy which now for the. first time placards the vevy crime of which fps years we have been accusing it, and against which we have, hitherto vainly, warned the English nation. And these men, reviling every other class of British anre -fkisibro diialesCe - iiirias;s'Ciat - eiTh - tlieiii, claim the Queen's Ministers as the Vet!) 'friend; that rebellious Ireland can confide Protestants,. then, continue to suffer t4e:ea4lstefice . Wan Administration which-hesitates to repudiate such a league,2 How much longer will Lord „Melborne,be insensible to_the. infamy of a state like this? How much longer will Great Britain forbear to insist on this election between her and her alien enemy ?—Times. At length the manifestations of popular-opinion are ex 'acting, as we Antitipeted; the attention of that portion of the press which at - first treated them with indifferenee or 'contempt. The importance of these manifestations can now no longer be denieiL bu,t their effect is .endea . vowed to be icripaii,d day : calumny, when less. direct ~means llaye proved iostafficipat to the .purpose of their .opponents, and :aceerdin g l the meetings which were at first represented as too despicable in numbers to de serve notice, beyond the commemoration of their alleged failure, are now stated and commented upon as of a cha racter most fearful to the peace of the country. However, the true Reformers of Enebeel may suffer these calumnies to sweep by them as the idle wind, which they respect not. There never yet was an effective demonstration in fa vour of Reform which was not made the subject of similar slanderous revilings. But the Reformers of England may well challenge a judgeient of their intentions from their general conduct, and defy the m alevolent accusations of their enemies. Nothing is easier than to impute wicked and criminal intentions, but nothing would be more unfair than to condemn men from the bare representations of their enemies, without reference to their own acts, and collateral circumstances. By what party is a tendency to violence most strongly exhibited ? Not by the Reformers, but by the Tories, and a fraction al section of the Reformers known as Tory Radicals, who, influenced partly by selfish purposes, and partly by mistaken notions of the operation of the New Poor-law, asso.iate themselves with proceed ings which all rational and well-disposedmen must condemn. But accusation from same ua.rties may be expected, and therefore excused as a matter of course. Not so, however, the condemnatory attacks of others who have long acted with, and even gone he on I those whom they now find it expedient to assail. Mr. O'Connell's accusation against the Reformers of Eaglend is, for instance, an anomaly which we cannot understated ; especially when we reflect that one of the most active Members of the Committe composed of six Members of the House of Commons, and six delegates of the people, appointed to prepare the People's Charter, was Mr. O'Connell. We cannot understand how a man can support Universal Suffrage, and yet assert Annual Parliaments to be an imprac ticable proposition ; or how he can vote for the Ballot, end yet refuse to coalesce with any party who desire the pay ment of Members of Peril ament. This is to adopt the more extensive principles and Niggle about details. But neither in these principles or details do we see anything so extravagant or impracticable as Mr. O'Connell's own pro position to procure en addition of fifty members to the Irish representation, by deducting a similar number from the representation of Eeelen,l. We are pained to see dif ferences of this kin I an ade the pretext of keeping the Re formers of England and Ireland divided. There are many points on which both parties could, in fact few, if any, on which they could not, unite without a compromise of opi nion on either side. The English Reformers hare offered their Irish brethren the right hand of fellowship, and even pledged themselves, in case the combined effort should fail, to assist in all the measuros now exclusively claimed for Ireland. It is towards this great combination that all the friends of both countries should exert themselves, nor can we confide in the judgment and integrity of any man who would endeavour to oppose it.—Morning Advertiser. It is worth while to read the French newspapers to see how nicely they can discuss matters of which they are pro foundly ignorant. Information is not necessary to their disquisitions. It is the ingenuity of the argument about which they trouble themselves, and not about such-matter of-fact affairs as the truth or accuracy of that upon which the argument is founded. They will write you column after column upon the qaestion whether the King should reign only, and not govern, or should do both at occe, but a question of rather a more substantial nature, viz., whe ther they have not been clwased by one who pretended to place himself at the head of a republican system, but who does in fact rule with all but absolute authority—that ques tion it seems not to occur to them to discuss. However, it is not their forgetfulness of political realities to which we now desire to allude, but to their confident way of assum ing (for the sake of the argument, of course) the reasons of English superiority in manufacturing industry. Upon this subject the Journal des Debats is most complacently oracular. " All those," it says, " who have accurately examined the causes of the superiority of the English in manufacturing industry, have perceived that it principally depends upon this—that in Great Britain the workmen are thoroughly practised in their business by a long apprenticeship, whilst the masters and directors are on their side also prepared for business before they enter into it. It is in this way, even more perhaps than by the excel lence of their modes of communication, or the abundance. of capital employed upon them, that English fabrics have predominated in every market from which they have not been shut out by prohibitory duties." This is very fine, but what follows is much finer :--" Thus also it is that we (the French) ought to endeavour to surpass them in our turn ; and this we could do, for who can doubt that when the incomparable vivacity of French intelligence, and the genius of our nation—genius so eminently practical that no other people know how as we do to pass rapidly from theory to practice, and to execute that which has been conceived ; who can doubt, I say," (here the editorial " we" is aban doned) "that when we shall have directed towards the works of industry those fine qualities which distinguish us, we shall obtain in that quarter the success which we have borne away when we have directed them to the labours of war ?" This is remarkably modest! The in ference which we English are expected to draw from this is, that the French have not surpassed us in manufac turing industry only because they have never taken the trouble so to do ; but they can surpass us whenever they please to try, and come off successful by their "belles qualites" as they have done in war. Now it occurs to us, that however great the success of the French was in war at one time, their failure was no less conspicuous at ano ther time. However rapid the advance of their arms, the retrogression and defeat were still more rapid, and as the defeat happened to be in point of chronology the last, it ought to be as well remembered as the suc cess. The French, «e admit, have been very great in war, but they who have had the enemies' troops twice quartered in their capital within the memory of even young men, ought not to write as if they had known nothing in war but success. If it were possible for the French to understand the humour of Shakspeare, we would recommend to them Dogberry's mode of self-encomium : " I am wise fellow, and which is more an officer, and which is more a householder, and which is more as pretty a piece of flesh as any in Messina, and one that knows the law, go to; and a rich fellow enough, go to; and a fellow that hath had losses ; and one that hath two gowns, and everything handsome about him." Now, if the French were to say " we are a nation that bath been in war successful enough, go to ; and one that hath had losses," it would, so far as truth is an aslYantage,le a r considerab - le improvement npon the - wholesale boasting of the Debats. In othei "respects and the Debats have pretty much . the same style ofself-laudation.: But what can exceed, the ingeniousfilistircjity cit. attributing &British snperiprify in manetieturinvindustry to our system of apprenticeship .? This is as if the superiority of our navy were gravely set down , te - tim - acenant - of'the excellence of the cloth whereof our ships'-sails eretnade, or the remark able effectiveness of our bayonet work upon the field 'of brittle to':-our superior werkmanship in steel. Tint, inde pendently of the ludicrous smallness of the cause assigned great anie . ffeet, even the:Frenel might have known ; tlia(the . apprenticeship sy&t: in was far more strictly attended tq_n hu.o4 - red.years ago, or, two liundzed , yearsrago,- •than it is new. Some of the largest fortunes made in manufactures' have beeu, .made by.. pmons who . .never. were regularly brought w. to the , busimak.,s;;, and though superior know , ledge is-in the majority , of -instances one of the4OundAtions of 'manufacturing .sueeps, fyetrit isf - :not - the knoWledge rirefrona regular education, but from the application of a vigerous - geniuilia search of `improvement beyond that to which" mannfaciiiring educatio n has hitherto reached. It would be presumptuous in any man, however conversant with the subject, to s.ly with confidence that he knows what are all the causes of the prodigious advancement which Great Britain has made in manufacturing industry ; but there are some greatly effective causes, which are obvious enough, and they are such as—other things being equal— France cannot hope to compete with. These are the natural facilities for machine labour afforded by the abundance of coal, and iron ore, and the moral qualities of the British people, namely, gre a t energy, unweary ing p erseverance, and untiring patience in awaitin g the benefi c i a l result, To these are to be added the grand financial cause —the enormous capital which persons not ashamed of industrious pursuits are possessed of. There are, perhaps, twenty millions of pounds sterling, or five hundred millions of francs, now sunk in railroad works alone, from which not one shilling of dividend has yet been derived, and yet no murmu r of impatience, no sound of alarm is ever heard upon the subject. But in France, where they have been able to execut e by so t sub scription about twenty m il es of railroad, great alread i s t h e appre h ens i on at the delay of dividends y , the principal Journals of the kingd om are putting forth long chapters of disquisition to calm the public mind, and to prevent a financial panic. The French peopleeaff cannot be great in commercial enterprise until the y n much longer for profitabl.: returns on their eapi d tal t , o t w h a 2lti they sto b e able to do at present. with regard to em their proposed schools for workmen by meaps of which Trench Ittnit;s is to rival - the "stilieiiorit'y of British manu factures, they may do ‘very well to -amuse the French people, and to afford' thernes for vain lorious disquisition in the French Papers._ to their supposed important na tional.effect upon-, manufacturing industry, it is ridiculous. —lforning Post. LAW INTELLIGENCE. VICE,CHANCELLaR'S COURT.- 1Vot;. ,26. BOWES V. FERNIE. This was a suit by Lady Glamis against Mr. Fernie, who had for many years acted as receiver for the late Lord Glamis, to set aside certain releases which his Lord ship had executed in the year 1833, upon — the basis of certain Accounts which were then settled, and fora general account. MONEY' AND 'CITY NEWS. - - (rßoaf THE MORNING PAPERS OP THIS DAY. TlDlES:—Tomorrow being settling-day; the jobbers were busy in, the prepAration or adjustment -.of their :ac counts. A good deal of business wp.s, done in the funds without, however, causing any fluctuation in "prices worth notice. His HONOUR recapitulated the agreement for arbitration ind the award, and aft , :r going in detaii..tbrou g h the ob jections to the award t he overri,ile&them all. He thought the' case against the arbitrators personally had . been, in effect withdrawn, but in truth it 'ought not to have been advanced. He therefore refused the motion with costs. No trate' has yet been' discniered, 'if is stated, of the party charged lately' with the falsification or abstraction of Mexican Bonds ; but from the inquiries set on foot, and the information procured,, the.extent of the frauds perpe trated, or which yet .may hang-in suspense, appears to have been ase'rtained with tolerable exactitude. As it is a subj ct about which some Uneasiness may reasonably be supposed to prevail among the holders of that kind of se curities, the following particulars, which have transpired in quarters most likely to be well informed, may not he out of place. By a_-.comparison of the quantity o f Bonds delivered by the engravers, employed with those issued or still unfilled up iw the hands of the house of agency, it results that about thirty of the defern'd bonds, of the nominal valUe of 500/. each, the marketable value of which is Si. per cent. each, or thereabouts, is the total number which cannot be accounted for at present, at,d which therefore may possibly be in circulation. This refe rs only of course to those which have-not been actually d s _ covered as placed anywhere. In the hands of certriin parties who have made advances upon the deposits 25 fa bricated Active Bonds have been found, and 57 of the Deferred, the numbers of which haVe been duly taken, and the circulation so far rendered impracticable, as in the event of the culprit's apprehension they will probably have to be proluced by the holders. Besides these, Forester, the officer employed, has found and secured in the premises of the party himself 64 Active 13unds and 10 Deferred, which would have been issued but for the timely detec tion of the fraud. It turns out, to the surprise of his employers, that the culprit del* had offices on his own ac count in Freeman's -court, Cornhill, where he was exten sively engaged in manufacturing. companies. It appears that his operations were confined to,the filsification of 5001. new bonds, for, excepting the abstraction of ,the old bonds for merly alluded to, no frauds have been committed in new bonds, either Active or Defirred, 'of ANL, or any les.* amount than 5001. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Nor. 26 THE QUEEN V. CALCRAFT. In this case an indictment had been preferred against the prisoner for having fraudulently removed a person named Sarah Duffield, who was a material and necess lry witness in a prosecution which had been instituted against her father for murder, whereby the indictment against the father had failed of being proved, and the father had been acquitted. It was charged and proved that this prisoner had got the daughter from her situation by a statement made to her mistress that her i other was ill, and desired to see her, m.d by a promise that she should return on the followinz day. The present indictment had been tried at the last Liverpool Assizes, in the absence of the prisoner, and a verdict of guilty had been returned. The prisoner was now brought up for judgment. Affidavits were put in on the part of the prisoner, and M. WIGHTMAN addressed the Court in mitigation of punishment. Mr. STARKIE appeared on the part of the,prosecution. Mr. Justice PATTESON—Prisoner, you have been con victed at the last Assizes at Liverpool, upon an indictment which charges you with having secreted a witness who was a material and a necessary witness in a charge of murder. It apppears that she is the daughter of the person charged with the murder, and that you are the brother of her mo ther. You state in your affidavits that, the mother being ill, you assisted her in getting her daughter sway from Niancliever to Nottingham, but that when she .was there you deny using any controul over her, and you state that, being twenty years of age, she was perfectly her own mis tress, and could have gone back if she had pleased. That may be the fie, but it is quite cle tr that you assisted her to go away in the first instance, and thus evade the per formative of a duty, painful it is true, but most neces sary for the safety of society. The affidavits which have been laid before us show that you have been ruined in circumstances by this conduct ; that you have long wan dered about the country, but that you have recently been in prison, being apprehended after the verdict given against you. The Court takes all these circumstances into consi deration, but it must be well understood by all persons whatever, that this is an offence of a most serious descrip tion. You have occasioned a perversion of jusqce, and have prevented from being fairly tried a person charged with a foul and atrocious untuler. You, at least, assisted .n procuring such a result. Everybody must be aware that it is the duty of every subject of the country, not only-not to screen, but to bring an offender to justice. This is a pain ful case in some respects, as the person removed „through your agency was the daughter of the prisoner. It does not, therefore, surprise any one that you should have felt a wish to act as you have done, but you ought to have re sisted that wish, for it was your duty to take care that she should have appeared in a court of justice as a witness. You have suffered already some imprisonment —you have suffered in circumstances—and the Court trusts that the example of what you have suffered will deter others from committing the same crime. The sentence of the Court is that you be imprisoned in the gaol of Rutland for two calendar months. The Stock Exchange was in a state of considerable agi tation to-d,ly, through the announcement of some extensive frauds committed by Mr. Terry, the Managing Director of the Anti-Dry Rot Company. The report is, that the shares havin been called in for the purpose of regis tration, as many as 2,400 out of the whole 10,000 shares into which the capital stock was divided, were re-issued, or lodged with parties against advances of money by the person alluded to, without any authori zation of the owners, and of course without the privity of the directors. How far the company stands committed by this fraudulent act of one of its confidential servants does not yet appear. It is stated. on the part of the di rectors, that the Company is not held liable for the transac tions of the party, although in its employ, and the shares so misappropriated having been confided, not to the indi vidual, but on the faith and according to the terms of an order of the Board of Directors, explanations will doubtless he afforded in proper time by the parties concerned, for the satisfaction of the shareholders at large, many of whom being at a considerable distance must he exceedingly anxious with respect to the security of their property. This circumstance has led to the recent decline in the shares of this company, of which a great number were thereby thrown upon the market, and not any alteration in its general pro spects, which are favourable. CHRONICLE.—Money on the whole is rather more n demand than it has been lately, but the inquiries for it are not sufficiently extensive to occasion any immediate in crease in the rate of discount, and as the Bank of England is expected to issue on Thursday its usual notice at this period of the year, to make advances upon app-oved bills, &c., until the beginning of the year, it is not thought any material change will be effected in the Money-market for some time. The chief business transacted to-day in the English Stock-market was in making preparations for the adjustment of the Account, which takes place to-morrow. Consols for Money left off at 931 i to 94, and 94 buyers for the January Account. Exchequer Bills closed at 66 to 68 prem.; India Stock, 2624 to 263 i ; and Bank Stock, 203 to 203 i. There was some activity displayed in the Spanish Market at the commencement of business, and purchases were made in compliance of orders from Paris, we understand, which led to a slight improvement in the price of Active Stock as compared with Saturday's quotations. It closed a , 17* to t, being a rally o' 1 per cent. Dutch Securities are rather heavy : the Five per Cents., at 100 i to and the Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 53k- to 54k, as letters from Amsterdam allude to the march of troops to the Belgian frontier, which, in some measure, bears out the feeling we stated on Saturday exists in the City as to hostile proceed ings being apprehended between Holland and Belgium. In the other foreign stocks there is no a lt era ti on . Another affair, in some degree similar to Macnin's busi ness, has been discovered to-day in the city, and has occa sioned considerable interest and excitement, as the person accused was well known, and the Company a conspicuous . one. It i s i n f ac t s t a t e d th a t th e manag ing Director of the Anti-Dry-Rot Company has absconded, taking with him a considerable amount of money, which he had obtained by a fraudulent application of the shares entrusted to him. In the Share Market it caused particular sensation. It appears he had been receiving from the holders of scrip their certificateslo ;egistAr• the shares in their names, it being of course presumed that they would be cancelled in the regular manneri. and .:•as usual in such cases. In stead of which, the party alluded to has employed them to obtain loans of money _on, their deposit, and then, as payment of the ,adyaqces became due, ~bas sold . them on the market... This explains what has been to many persons quite incomprehensible namely, how it happened that an undertaking apparently so prosperous, and upon which a dividend of 21. per share is advertised. ;should remain at so large a discount. Thee fraudulent sales were stated in the early part of the day to amount to several thousand shares, but we have since seen some of the gentlemen connected with the Company, and we be lieve we may state that the mischief has been greatly exag gerated, and that much unnecessary alarm exists on the subject.

In this case two rules had been obtained to set aside writs of capias whieh had been issued against the defen dant, one out of the Court of Arches, the other out of the Court of Delegates, again-t the defendant, for disobedience to orders of the Ecclesiastical Court. It was contended that these writs had been irregular y issued. The Court thou,:ht that, upon the facts stated and the authorities referred to, the two writs of capias had been irregularly issued, and therefore made the rule absolute. THE QUEEN V, THE GUARDIANS 07 BRAINTREE. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, 011 behalf of the Poordaw Commissioner., applied for a rule for a mandamus to the defendants, commanding them to elect a chaplain for the Braintree Union. They hail received the order of the Commissioners to do so, but had disobeyed it.—Rule granted. THE QUEEN V THE MAYOR OF YORK. Sir F. PoLLocx, on a former day, had obtained a rule, calling on the defendant to show cause why a mandamus should not issue, commanding him to put the name of Mr. Robinson on the burgess list of the city of York. The affidavits set forth that Mr. Robinson occupied two rooms in premises of which he was the owner. The remain ing rooms of these premises, which were within the limits of the city of York. were occupied by other partius who did not pay him any rent, but found part of the furniture re quired for his use, and supplied such service as he required. The COURT thought that in the present case the claim was not so clear as to justify the issuing of a mandamus. Rule discharged, with costs. BAIL COURT, Nor 26. HODGSON V. DRURY. His LORDSHIP give judgment in this case, in which a rule nisi had been obtained to set aside an award, on the ground that the umpire had been appointed, not by the choice of the arbitrators, but by placing the names of seve ral persons, written on pieces of paper, in a hat, and then drawing out one of them, who was thereupon appointed umpire. His Lordship said that in the case of —v. Carswell, Lord Tenterden had decided that the election of an umpire must be a matter of choice and not of chance, unless the parties consented to some other mode. Now in the present case the parties had not consented to the course adopted, by the arbitrators, and therefore the rule must be made aheolute.—Rule absolute. THE QUEEN V. BRYANT.

PECULIAR CASE — James Lawrence came up for judg ment. The insolvent alleged that his mother,wh o had received for a number of years parochial relief from Kensington, had advanced him upwards of 2501. in his business as a retailer of beer, which he carried on in Pimlico and Chel sea. The circumstance had att acted some not i ce ,, an d the relieving officer of the parish (Mr. M a dd en ) watched the proceedings. It appeared according to the evidence of the insolvent and his mother , that advances wer e ma d e at dif ferent periods, and that part of the money was sold out of the funds. She had received at the same period.2s. a-week from the parish, which had been paid for eight years, and, until publicity was gig en to the case. Th e i nso l vent, to se cure his mother, and against his creditors, gave her a war rant of attorney, under which the property had been sold, and after expenses produced 1501., which sum, on a motion was paid into the Court of Queen's Bench. It was sup posed that the money was deposited under the Inter pltader Act, but it was now ascertained not to have been so paid. Mr. COOKE, who appeared on the part of two greditors, informed the Court that advice had been taken, and it was found that the money could only be paid on the application of the insolvent 's mother. An action would n o t lie aaii,st dad the as.i6oet *thud be übli i ied to bring an motion against the mother, whith would atatwrially diminish the fund now in the Court of Queen's Bench. lie prayed a remand for a fraudulent disposition of property.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A man in the military rags of the British legion, with his toes bitten off by the, frost, and his eye knocked out in Spain, was charged with being found destitute. The defendant said his name was Lewellyn Roberts, a native' of K ales. His story was similar to hundr.•d- of others belonging tO the same unlucky corps. He had been mounded, sent home under promise of being paid arrears, amounting to W., and from that period had been lingering about the streets i❑ the vain hope of obtaining a fulfilment of the promise. Mr. CHAMBERS sa,d it teas shameful conduct on the part of those who were indebted to the mon to 11,,1d out hopes which there appeared no intention to realise. A great many British Legion soldiers had been kept in London, begging about, entirely through the promises of payment which had been made. The Spanish Govern ment ought either to say at once that they either would or would not pay the men who had claims upon them. The man said his claim bad been sent in, and he ex pected to get his money in the course of the week. He had learned that the claims were in course of payment from the newspapers. The Magistrates expressed their doubts as to the accu racy of the information, and ordered the man to be dis charged. A journeyman pianoforte-maker, named Steeble, was called upon by Mr. Bryant, overseer of St. James's, to con tribute something towards the maintenance of his sick wife. Mr. Bryant said the defendant was an excellent work man, and his wages averaged, he believed, between 21. and 3/. per week. His wire was in the Infirmary of St. James's workhouse very ill, and he was required to pay ss. weekly towards her support, which he refused to do. The defendant said he had parted from his wife some years ago, because she was an incorrigible drunkard. Ultimately the order for ss. a week was made on the defendant so long as the wife continued sick, and supported by the parish. MARYLEBONE. A poor woman namfid Bowler, was brought up in cus tody, and placed at the bar, charged by police constable 32 E, who stated that on the previous afternoon, about three o'clock, he found the prisoner, with her basket, at the corner of Goodge-street, and conveyed her to the station house. Mr. RAWLINSON— Why is she brought here ; what harm has she done ? Constable—The inhabitants complain, Sir, of these women being about the streets. Mr. RAWLINSON—I dare say they do, and sometimes very properly so ; but why is not the attention of con stables directed to other nuisances of far more serious con sequences. T►,e prisoner, after a caution, was discharged withou payment of the office fee. QUEEN-SQUARE. SENDING A THitEATENING LETTER.--James Reeves, a gardener, was yesterday placed at the bar for re-exami nation, charged with sending a letter, threatening to fire some premises at Hammersmith. Mr. GREGORIE, addressing the prisoner, observed that he was much indebted to the prosecutor (Mr. Bird) for bis kind recommendation. There was quite sufficient evidence to send before a Jury, and he would be subject on convic tion to transportation for life. He should now therefore only call upon the prisoner to put in good bail for his future be haviour. The prisoner was locked up in default. Four newsvenders, residing in this district, yesterday appeared on summonses, obtained against them by Sto well, the common informer, for vending a weekly un stamped publication, the printer's name not being on the first and last page. Mr. Wise, the solicitor, pointed nut the informality in each summons, the county in which the offence was alleged to have taken place bein4 omitted. Mr. GREGORIE considered the objection was fatal to the informer, and dismissed the whole four summonses. Wm. Thomas was charged with robbing Samuel Howe of IL 2s. 6d. in the King's Arms, Orchard -street, West- ' minster. The prosecutor, who is a hard-working mechanic, stated that about half-past five o'clock on Sunday morning he went into the tap-room of the King's Arms pub lic-house, and partook of a pint of beer. He was then about to leave the room, and was making his way through 20 or 30 men, who had assembled there, when the prisone'r adopting a manoeuvre common amongst bad characters, threw his arms round him, and said, He shan't fight." He was then surrounded, and his left-hand trousers' pocket, in which was a sovereign and half-a-crown, was cut off. He called for assistance, and the waiter turned him out of the room. He appealed to the landlady, seated what had occurred, and she took him by the shoulders, and was in the act of thrusting him out of the house, when he called for the police, who imme diately came in and took the prisoner into custody. The landlord of the house was in the bar at the time, but never offered to interfere. W. Luff proved the apprehension of the prisoner, and said that he knew him as the associate of thieves, and the men in whose company he was be believed to be of bad character. Mr. GREGORIE expressed a wish to know the characters of the persons who were in the house at the time of the robbery, as he understood it was one of very bad repute. He also directed a summons to be issued, to compel the attendance of the landlord on Thursday, to which day he remanded the prisoner. It was not above a month since a constable and prosecutor, who went to this house to look for a thief, were dreadfully beaten, and no assistance was offered by the landlord. UNION-HALL. Yesterday, LVesbett, who describes himself as a "bone polisher" to one of the Borough hospitals, was charged on suspicion with having robbed the house in which he was lodging. The complainant, an elderly MAO, stated that the pri soner lodged at his house, and that recently several articles of dress and other things had been taken from the house, and suspecting the accused wag the person by whom they were stolen, he had him taken into custody. The Magistrate inquired how the prisoner was getting his lisinz. Prisoner—(who is an Irishman)—l am " bone polisher" ;o the hospital. Magistrates—Explain it. I don't understand you.
